Handsontable: Virtual scrolling doesn't work if Handsontable's container is a virtual element.

[swistach]

Description

Full issue's background was described in handsontable/angular-handsontable#43.

To make a long story short, if you try to initialize Handsontable in a virtual created element, then virtual scrolling doesn't work.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open demo.
2. Scroll vertically/horizontally.

• There is a workaround - you can use this.updateSettings({}) instead of this.render().

Your environment

• Handsontable version: 1.14.0 (0.34.0)+
• Browser Name and version: Chrome, Safari, Edge

If you use hot.view.wt.wtOverlays.updateMainScrollableElements() after initializing the Handsontable that also works (not inside the afterInit callback) and has a lot less of an impact on performance than updateSettings() does. Useful for if you are creating/destroying tables on a regular basis. Not sure if that information helps or not.

Hey @naveenjaiswal

the fix has been postponed. We need some time to figure out the exact approach. I will send you a notification once we get this done.
